ABSTRACT
Cutaneous metastasis from bladder cancer is very rare. A 48-year-old man presented with a 5 month history of a dome-shaped nodule on his scalp. Histopathologic examination of the skin lesion revealed the proliferation of atypical cells, which were similar to those of urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder. We herein report on a case of cutaneous metastasis from urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder with a review of the Korean literature.

Eccrine porocarcinoma is a very rare, locally-aggressive, potentially fatal, malignant cutaneous neoplasm that arises from the intraepithelial ductal portion of the eccrine sweat gland. Eccrine porocarcinoma may develop either spontaneously or from a longstanding benign eccrine poroma. Herein, we describe two cases of eccrine porocarcinoma and review the related literature.

Xanthogranuloma is a benign, fibrohistiocytic lesion that presents as a yellowish, cutaneous papule or nodule. Although the head, neck, and trunk are the most common sites for xanthogranuloma, it can appear at any site on the body. We report a rare solitary xanthogranuloma on the palm of 24-year-old man.
